Flash Sale • Thursday, April 9th • 9AM - 5PM

Prepaid Labor Blocks $100/hr $150/hr regular rate

10-hour blocks • save $500 each • limit 4 per client

Hi there,

We don't do these often, so here's the short version.

For today only (Thursday, April 9th, 9AM - 5PM), we're offering 10-hour prepaid labor blocks at $100/hour. That's $1,000 per block instead of the usual $1,500. If you've been putting off that server migration, network upgrade, or office buildout -- or if you just want to lock in a considerably lower hourly rate for whenever you need us -- this is your opportunity.

And if you've been paying our standard rate of $175/hr on an as-needed basis, this is worth a serious look. You'd be cutting your hourly cost nearly in half, and the hours never expire. Use them whenever you need us -- no rush, no deadline.

The Details: • 10-hour blocks at $100/hr (normally $150/hr) • Limit: 4 blocks per client (40 hours max) • Hours never expire • Use them for anything -- projects, support, on-site work • Today only, 9AM - 5PM. When it's over, it's over.

Cybersecurity Are You Actually Protected?

Here's something we're seeing more and more: attacks that are written by AI. Not the clumsy phishing emails full of typos that you could spot from a mile away. These are polished, personalized, and they're getting past people who know better. AI has made it cheap and easy for attackers to scale up -- and small businesses are squarely in the crosshairs because most of them aren't prepared for it.

That's why we've been pushing two things lately:

Penetration Testing. We go after your network the same way an actual attacker would -- probing for weak spots, testing your defenses, seeing what's exposed. Then we hand you a plain-English report that tells you exactly what we found and what to do about it. Most businesses are genuinely surprised by the results. Right now we're offering a free security risk assessment -- that includes an external vulnerability scan, a dark web search for your company's compromised credentials, and a simulated phishing test on your staff. No strings, no sales pitch. Just a written report with a risk score. If you're curious, just reply or give us a call.

Advanced Antivirus for GPS Subscribers. If you're on our GPS-Pro or GPS-Advanced plans, you've already got enterprise-grade EDR running on your machines -- that's Endpoint Detection & Response, and it catches the stuff that traditional antivirus flat-out misses. Think behavioral analysis, ransomware rollback, real-time threat intelligence. It's the kind of protection that used to be reserved for big companies with big budgets. If you're still on GPS-Basic, let's talk about whether it makes sense to step up. The threat landscape has changed a lot, even in the last year.

Business Phone Systems Still Overpaying for Phone Service?

We talk to business owners all the time who are paying way too much for phone service that doesn't even do what they need. Locked into contracts, paying per-feature fees, dealing with clunky hardware from 2015. Sound familiar?

Our ACG-Voice system (powered by PacketDial) starts at $22/user/month. That gets you unlimited calling, voicemail-to-email, and a softphone app so your team can take calls from their desk, their laptop, or their phone -- wherever they are. The Standard tier at $28/user adds desk phone support, call queues, and ring groups. Basically everything a real office needs without the enterprise price tag.

We handle the setup, port your existing numbers over, and support the whole thing going forward. If your current provider has been nickel-and-diming you, let's have a conversation. It usually takes about five minutes to figure out if we can save you money.

Now Returning The Computer Guru Show

Some of you might remember our radio show -- we ran it for years before taking a break back in 2018. Well, it's coming back. We've been working on new episodes for Season 11, and honestly, there's never been a better time. Between AI, ransomware, and everything happening in the tech world right now, there's no shortage of things to talk about.

The format is the same as it always was: straight talk about technology, security, and what it all means for regular people running businesses. No buzzwords, no sponsored segments, just us breaking it down.

In the meantime, all 194 classic episodes are archived and ready to listen at radio.azcomputerguru.com. We'll let you know when the new season drops.

We're grateful for you! Please reach out anytime -- we're here for you. Thanks, Michael Swanson Owner www.azcomputerguru.com phone: 520.304.8300 {{location_logo_100}}
